The most interesting group I saw at Interbike was the Wounded Warrior Project booth. Being an active duty soldier these guys hit me closer to home. I met a few of the volunteers and got a bunch of great information about this nonprofit organization. It’s great seeing people like this helping our wounded heroes.
The Wounded Warrior Project Soldier Ride’s cycling programs give severely wounded servicemen and women the opportunity to reinvigorate their bodies and uplift their spirits. Soldier Ride provides each of the brave men and women who participate in our ride with the adaptive equipment they need to cycle, even if they are missing one or more limbs. Participation in our cycling and recreational events fosters the rehabilitation of the wounded by showing them that they can still lead active, independent lives and gives families the opportunity to reconnect outside of the hospital environment.
